I'd consider changing the hair rather than the face to add contrast, the skin tone looks really nice.

Looking good so far.

Re: the sculpt...
I've never really liked the High Elf Swords. They all seem like they are from a different range and from a slightly larger scale. Not the fine gentle exquisite works you might expect.

I agree - compared to teh nice straight swords that the Vampires get High ELf swords (especially on the plastics) look a little clumsy and child-like..

Umm, I think the deadline was the end of June, which means I am running about 2 months late.
I am failure incarnate.

I think I'll probably end up changing the hair colour, probably making it a little more contrasty, and possibly somewhere more along the lines of a silvery white (think along the lines of Sephiroth from FFVII), as on second looking, I'm really fond of the skin colour, it really worked out nicely.

Update time, but alas! no pictures...
My cameras have been purloined for various reasons, and I'll probably only have them back for monday =(

Anyway, didn't quite make the progress I was after due to various things popping up, but this morning I was able to get the hair almost finished.
A few glazes (3, I belive) of fortress grey, then some extra shading with codex grey, then codex grey+black, and highlights of pure white, has given me a nice, silvery tone.

I'll see how it looks tonight and possibly continue working on it, 'til I've got it to a stage where I'm completely happy.
